If you look at some of the bigs, Greensmoke, Puresmoke, Vapor King, Vapor 4 Life, etc... our prices are good - very good.
I didn't say your prices were the worst out there. There are obviously companies that are just blatantly preying on people who don't know better. And they aren't always bigger because they have better product. They are bigger because someone fronted a bunch of money for marketing. Just because they are bigger, does not mean better.
Our fault may be we are targeting the basic user, someone who may be considering moving to an ecig for the first time from traditional cigarettes. The majority of traditional smokers (our opinion) are not looking to drip liquid into cartrdiges, maintain atomizers, etc...
Agreed. A 2 piece PV is probably the best option for someone just starting out. I myself prefer 2 piece over 3 piece. But, your site clearly says "if they say ATOMIZER - DO NOT BUY". I copied and pasted that directly from your home page. You are telling people that a 3 piece ecig is bad or that there is something wrong with it. That is just not true on any level.
A modern two piece design with disposable cartridges provides nearly one pack of smoking from one Cartridge/Cartomizer and battery charge.
C'mon. We all know this is just not true.
Are there advanced users who want Large batteries, refillable cartridges, extensive juice offering - of course there is and they have many places to purchase their products.
Are there new users that want a battery that will last an entire work day? Would new users refill cartomizers if they know it was a cheaper option? Yes and Yes. And luckily, we do have a lot of places to purchase stuff.
We seem to have hit a nerve with people who prefer 3 piece desgins, refilling and modding - we will find a way to avoid this nerve, we do not want to make people unhappy. We are just trying to market squarely at our target.
I don't care about 3 piece designs, refilling or modding. The nerve that you have hit with me is the fact that you are misrepresenting your own product and more so, all ecigs. In this case, your "target" is people who do not know that your information is wrong.
Apples to apples, compare our product to like product, we stand behind it, they are excellent quality and very well priced.
I'm not saying your product is bad or inferior. I am saying however that it is not superior to other ecigs as you suggest that it is. I own and use 4 808 batteries and I like them. I am sure that your batteries are just as good as any that I own. I am also sure that I could buy 808 batteries from 10 different vendors and most or all of them would be just as good.
Our site gives people honest information,
No, it doesn't
Think about what the FDA, US Government and Local Governments are doing, they do not want to see ecigs marketed toward younger people/kids. These fruity/candy flavors are going to sink the boat faster then anything.
If people have accurate information about ecigs they are less likely to demonize them. I agree that the flavor and kids issue is big. But, people who understand the ecig properly are less likely to consider that an issue. This is why providing inaccurate information is bad for all of us.
We for sure would not sell these products if the people who bought them said they sucked and returned them, you cannot run a business like this.
The majority of people that would buy from you, or your "target" don't know the difference. If they don't like it, they probably just go back to smoking. How many people from this forum have bough kits from you?
